Applications

HeavyDuty speed switches from Baumer have been setting the standards for robustness, reliable function and variety of the range for years. They often fulfill the decisive safety function by triggering a switching output when the switching speeds are exceeded or fallen below. In the case of a mechanical centrifugal force switch, the centrifugal force of the centrifugal force at the limit speed moves in a radial direction and actuates the change-over switch. For electronic and digital speed switches, speed-dependent electrical signals are generated and correspondingly internally evaluated for the actuation of up to three switching outputs.

HeavyDuty speed switches and speed monitors support functional safety implementation, for example at

Drives

Steelworks and rolling mills

Cranes and hoists

Oil and gas

Mining

Wind turbines

Theater technology

Centrifuges

Transport and handling systems

Automated guided vehicles

Dosing and filling stations

Cutting installations, punches and presses

High-frequency spindles

Pharmaceutical installations

Saws

and any other application where operators are in the danger zone.

Technology

Hübner Berlin – the original from Baumer

Hübner Berlin, now Baumer Hübner, is the Baumer competence center for HeavyDuty sensors for drive technology.

More than 60 years of expertise and experience as global market leader merge with cutting-edge technologies in unmatched robust and durable products.

Proven HeavyDuty principle

The extremely resilient housings are key for the unrivalled service life and reliability of the Baumer HeavyDuty encoders.

These robust housings with solid and thick walls are the perfect protection against outside impacts.

The torsion-resistant design is intended to endure high loads by shock and vibration.

Mechanical and electronic speed switches

Mechanical and electronic speed switches often fulfill the decisive safety function when overshooting or subtracting rotary speeds, in addition to the rotary encoder.

In applications with functional safety, our speed switches are classified as standard components as defined in the Machinery Directive 2006/42 / EC.

The assessment and certification of the complete system with speed switches according to e.g. EN ISO 134849 is mandatory to be carried out by a notified body.

Functional safety with certified safety components

SIL / PL certified sensors, encoders and signal evaluation units used as safety components in the sense of the machine directive 2006/42/EG simplify system safety evaluation and functional safety implementation in the application.

Safety evaluation and safety certification of a complete system according to e.g. EN ISO 134849 is mandatory to be carried out by a notified body.

Durable double-sided bearing setup

Thanks to unmatched resistance to axial and radial load, the Baumer concept of bearings at both shaft ends is well proven and tried and tested for decades in electrical machinery engineering.
